ARP 2000 Head Stud Kit 11mm - Nissan RB20DET / RB25DET / RB30 Twin Cam / CA18DET

Application: Nissan RB20DET, RB25DET, RB30 with twin cam head, CA18DET
Part Type: Cylinder Head Stud Kit
Part Number: 202-4309


The ARP 202-4309 cylinder head stud kit replaces the factory head bolts on Nissan RB20DET, RB25DET and RB30 twin cam engines, as well as the CA18DET, with high-strength ARP2000 studs and 12-point nuts. Studs give far more accurate and repeatable clamping load than factory torque-to-yield bolts, keeping the head sealed under the extra cylinder pressure of higher boost and big power builds.

ARP2000 is a premium alloy rated to around 220,000 psi tensile strength, a big step up from standard 8740 chrome moly hardware and well beyond the factory bolts. For RB and CA engines, the clamping load the head can take is the real limit, so ARP2000 gives you all the clamping force these engines can use without paying extra for exotic materials.

Key Features

  • ARP2000 material: premium alloy rated to approx. 220,000 psi tensile strength
  • 11mm studs with 12-point nuts: compact nuts that clear the head and cam carriers
  • Thread rolled after heat treatment: greatly improved fatigue strength over cut or pre-heat-treat rolled threads
  • Studs, not bolts: more accurate clamping load, less wear on the block threads and easier repeat head removal during engine builds
  • Reusable: unlike factory torque-to-yield head bolts

What's Included

  • Complete set of ARP2000 cylinder head studs
  • 12-point nuts
  • Washers

Important Notes

  • Install with ARP assembly lubricant and torque to ARP's specification, not the factory head bolt torque spec.
  • This 11mm kit is for the RB20DET, RB25DET, RB30 with twin cam head and CA18DET. It does not suit the RB26DETT.
  • Engine components should be installed by a qualified mechanic or engine builder.

Vehicle Fitment

  • Nissan RB20DET (e.g. Skyline R32 GTS-t, Laurel C33, Cefiro A31)
  • Nissan RB25DET (e.g. Skyline R33 / R34 GTS-t, Stagea WC34, Laurel C34 / C35)
  • Nissan RB30 bottom end with RB twin cam head (RB30/25 and RB30/26 style builds, incl. Holden VL Commodore RB30ET conversions)
  • Nissan CA18DET (e.g. Silvia S13, 180SX, Bluebird)
